I'm at work. We have no steam Which means the patients have no hot water.Maintenance guy on call swears if the boiler was down the switchboard would have gotten an alarm. I am willing to bet they paid no attention to that alarm. No steam means nothing can be sterilized. No one can get a hot shower. Nothing in the kitchen can be washed either.
SB the kitchen can boil water to wash dishes and sanitize things.
The rest of it is bad.
Hope your day goes by quick enough to enjoy it.
I will go back to sleep in a bit. I always wake up to take my meds. It's become such a habit I can tell what time it is by the amount of light outside.
Got the boys a couple new shirts yesterday. And they picked out new ties for Easter. Going to take C today to find her a dress and try to find me some thing. It's so much easier shopping for the guys but I am looking forward to some girl time with C.
That's about all I have planned today.
Hope everyone has the best day yet.

Dog woke me up at 5:30 to pee. I went back to bed. got up an hour later. Bringing the car to be detailed, DS is picking me up while the detailing is going on. We are going out to lunch at a new Asian restaurant and then to a wine tasting. It's going to take up most of the day but should be fun.

Been back at work over an hour. Still having steam issues. It's going off and on. Can't sterilize anything. Can't run tests. Just doing busy work in hopes they will get everything online soon.

Don't tell Joint Commission!

Ok I'm up. Everyone is getting ready to go get breakfast.
I hear "get ready so we can go eat" and I get up and get dressed and am ready to go in less than 5 minutes.
Everyone else hears that and takes showers, and spends 30-45 getting hair, face and clothes on.
If I can do all that in 5, why can't they? I understand taking a quick shower. But I do that faster too.
I'm hungry people! Let's go!

I'm up. We're going to a big huge Easter egg hunt fair thing today. Free hot dogs, bounce houses, face painting, and many other things. After we get done DH will come home and then go fishing with the kids. I'll take a nap.

I hope you're functioning perfectly by then. Will they ding you for no steam for sterilization?
They could call in theBoard of Health to shut the hospital down and move all the patients out.
If it is fixed in a timely manner, there isn't much they can do except maybe write the institution up. That is if it happens while they are there inspecting.

Faith isn't something that keeps bad things from happening. Faith is what helps us get through bad things when they do happen.
It's fixed.They would never let it stay down that long. We actually have two boilers. We are in the old part of the hospital so it only put us and L&D out in the cold and they don't have any patients right now.
I had the most awesome morning/early afternoon. Dropped my car off to be detailed. DS picked me up and we went to his Town House. I don't get there often. In fact the last time I was there was about 6 months ago. Totally expected it to be a trashy mess. OMG it is spotless! I was very impressed, DS was a bit PO'd at my shock. LOL Anyway we met friends of his for lunch at this trendy Asian restaurant in his city then went to the wine tasting in a tucked away place in one of those old brick buildings built around the turn of the 19th century. It was really great. On the way back to get my car I thanked DS for planning such fun stuff during the hours the blue haired crowd likes to party.

We had fun at the egg hunt thing even though the actual egg hunt was a mess. They handed out free nachos and sausages on stick and water and soda. There was face painting, bounce houses, bubble stations, balloon toss, tug of war, the gopher pounding game, and a crap load of other stuff to do. They handed out prizes. DN won a really pretty cross but they gave out a grill and a ton of gift certificates to places like Sonic, Chipotle, and Chic-Fil-A. I got really sunburned. Came home and took a short nap. DH is fishing.

I need to do a load of laundry. I'm trying to work up the energy.

That was such an awesome nap! I would still be asleep if Monster hadn't been barking. And I was actually confused when I woke up. I was thinking it was morning and I had slept through the night.
I could go right back to sleep right now.

SS made the town police department site! They have pictures of him "driving" the police car today! I posted them in the breakroom.

I need to go to the bank this morning and open a new account. Think it can be done in 20 minutes if I'm there when the doors open?
Bring the new account person some coffee. Twenty minutes seems a bit ambitious.

It took 25. But I'm a bit annoyed. I was depositing a certified check, and they put a hold on it for 10 days (some of it will be available in 2, but the bulk of it not for 10). That's ridiculous in this date and age.

Especially for a certified check. That's ridiculous. It's not a personal check!
I had a bank put a hold on a refund check from the IRS once. Ridiculous too. Especially since our deposits more than covered it.
